There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you might think, and it is never too late for someone in Lagrange to get help for addiction so that they can live the remainder of their lives and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most common addiction occurrences among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a treacherous combination. When added to the reality that seniors often suffer with other physical and psychological health issues that should be treated at the same time, it is recommended that any senior searching for treatment should find a facility that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which specialize in substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff prepared to provide substance abuse treatment and general geriatric health care, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more successful in an inpatient treatment program, where a safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A thorough evaluation of both physical and psychological health conditions will be performed so that any issues can be handled at the same time, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction to begin with. A complete treatment plan will be put into place that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
